Before
beginning this tirade, I feel compelled to go on record that I hold no
particular brief for Trent Lott. Having said that, I also have no regard for all
the PC garbage that we, the American people, have to suffer through these days.
I caught just enough of Jesse Jackson's attempt at being knowledgeable last
night on TV, to once again realize how dense many of those he claims to
represent are. He went on to say, "Trent Lott should be more like Lincoln,
a real friend to blacks".

Well have I got news for that maven of revisionist history about Abe, the
icon of American blacks, (saying that because most of the blacks doing all the
whining today were born here and haven't the remotest idea of what Africa is
about). Here is a little history that should drive the Jacksons, Sharptons,
Watters, Lees and also the black caucus, and a host of their uninformed,
(educated through affirmative action) peers some quotes that Old Abe made in
1858 during the Lincoln Douglas debates. Here is the first, that to those who
want to be real honest put Trent Lott's statements in the minor league
category.

Abe
said "I will say, then, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of
bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and
black races--that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or
jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor intermarry with
white people; and I will say in addition to this there is a physical difference
between the white and black races...I as much as any other man, am in favor of
having a superior position assigned to the white race".

Now
that I have surely aggravated, perhaps beyond repair, the psyche of those
blacks, who are willing to recognize the truth, I do feel secure that there
aren't many of those. Here is another goodie passed on during another debate,
from the mouth of old honest Abe. From this one it will be very shocking to many
blacks, that Abe was planning a system of geographical separation similar to
what was practiced in South Africa. In another debate with Stephen A. Douglas,
Lincoln made the following comments:

"Such
separation, if effected at all, must be effected by colonization.....what
colonization most needs is a hearty will... Let us be brought to believe that
it is morally right, and at the same time favorable to, or at least not
against, our interest to transfer, (means send back bk) the African to his
native clime, and we shall find a way to do it, however great the task may
be."

When
looked at in comparison with Lott's stupid remarks, (not vicious from where I
sit),
Lotts seem quite tame. How long must the majority in this country endure the
constant whining and pity party attitude that the liberal left is forever
indulging in? What a shame Old Abe was shot or the history books might read
differently, and not because some choose to revise them.
